The Tribute Golf Club Review

Decent location to host parties. Have only seen it at night, so not sure what amenities are there. Decor is aging and deteriorating.

Recently held a charity golf tournament here and had the BEST time.

The staff is fantastic. They are friendly, eager to help and easy to make you smile during long, stressful days.

The food was great, which is hard to say about most catering kitchens. They also coordinated well with our out-of-house dinner caterer.

Thank you to the Tribute team for making our tournament run smooth, our guests feel appreciated and keeping our staff smiling!

Wow! What an amazing links course. This is the type of golf course I grew up playing in the UK. And to find it in Texas, what a gem!

The proshop provided excellent service on a busy day and even arranged for a second round that same day without a teetime, just by squeezing us between 2 shotgun tournaments!

The clubhouse can use an uplift, especially the grill and its very basic menu and mediocre food. Someone please manage the F&B here :(

You can bomb it on this course. It has generous fairways. I would have liked faster greens and approach areas. There had been lots of rain so it was soft. The selected replica holes are very interesting, a great bunch of choices from some unknown gems.

New greens are smooth but very firm. Course is in good shape.

Everyone here is great. This is a great place to come and play golf. Would have been 5 star rating but the greens were jacked up and surely not up to their standards.

We had an excellent wedding reception. The venue was gorgeous and the service was professional. Plus it was more affordable than any of the other reception venues and everything was included. We highly recommend this venue.

Great course. Great staff. Play here if you have the chance.

Great place friendly service. Food is amazing as well

Excellent course - Pace and Conditions were outstanding. Not to mention my 4 birdies here.

Great course! Get the players club membership totally worth it!

I read some negative reviews about this course, but they obviously haven't been there lately. Course was great, range was great and range balls are free. Course was in excellent condition. There was even someone playing a bagpipe as we were finishing on the 17th and 18th. We weren't in Scotland, but it sure did seem like it!!!

I went in the clubhouse lost and found to look for my putter. They accused me of being a thief and was very sarcastic. I tried to describe my putter and ask them to check the lost and found, they smirked and sarcastically asked if I was looking for a free putter When I got upset and left, I could hear them laughing. Horrible people

Great golf course... very challenging, but in great shape!

Had our wedding here a few years ago. They went above and beyond to make it perfect.

Course is in awesome condition. One of DFW greats. It's a must play.

Let me start with saying this a two Part review to be fair. I attended the tributes as a guest with a wedding party so I got to try it this place in two capacities. The golfing was not bad an organized attractive 18 hole designed to mimic Scottish courses, it was fun to play on, 3 Stars for the golfing. Second part of my review, the hotel. Now, as a person who hates vacationing due to the hate for hotel's and the stigma of dirt and bugs this didn't help that. First when you check in, you'll do this with the proshop, no checking in with a hotel clerk, you'll be given an old school door key not card, you will make your way upstairs and down one of two opposing hallways to your room. Once you get to your room you'll notice immediatly these room look old, they don't look like they've been updated since the late 90's at best, the most up date amenities is the TV that is an old school Lcd Tv. The furniture was old, they looked pulled from an 80's pick and pull, my bed was actually two twins pushed together, some rooms just had 2 queens, some a full king. Only moments after checking in would I notice there was no way to lock the room, you could bolt yourself in on the top but a simple door lock wasn't present as the staff attempted to open my door moments after getting ready, I asked what they needed and they asked me if my sheets were okay, that wasn't a good sign, I got in the shower to notice the tub was cracked open in several areas and the staff had used a bath liner to cover it up. I reported this and it didn't seem to be a big deal to staff. When I completed my shower I got dressed and attempted to walk out onto my balcony where I would promptly notice the balcony is shared which was fine until I realized it was shared with all the other room who balcony doors didn't appear to lock, which was great when I needed to break into my own room when my wife passed out early with the only key, the staff leaves somewhere after 7 and pretty much lock you in after a certain time into the hotel with you and the other guests but anyway back to the balcony the shared space and lack of apperant ability to lock my door concerned me luckily I was the only guest on my side so I didn't need to worry. On the other side my buddy had a room and an adjacent balcony that he wouldn't even go out on after discovering a huge wasp nest built above his doorway and a spider crawling his window. Speaking of bugs, the last night I was here I woke up with bites down my right arm, my wife believes misquote bit me through my dress shirt, possible I guess. I told her that it was most likely bed bugs, either way still got bit. This was the second to last thing that made me want to leave immeduatly only reason i didnt was due to the bridal event being held here. The last thing that killed it was just as we all got ready to go to bed after the recption the water was turned off, no abilirmty to shower, brush our teeth, use the restroom, nothing. When reported tgey said well get to it, when brought up again they stated weve contacted maintenamce, 8 hours later water i still off. The wedding is now over and i woke up extra early to check out first opportunity i have. This is kind of something I don't have to say but just in case my suggestion is for you to save your money, 100$ a night or more mine was based off a wedding contract so it mightve been cheaper for me, but save your money and get a cheap hooker hotel you'll feel more comfortable. Unless this place gets it act together I would strongly suggest they stop renting rooms it's an embarrassment to this golf course.

Since the shelter in place has taken effect I have come here to walk and be outside while not running into many people keeping social distancing not a problem. This golf course is absolutely stunning right off the lake and very well kept. I am going to be sad when things open back up because the 6.5+ miles I have been walking will turn back into a lovely golf course but I am very much so enjoying it while I can. Hopefully the real walking trail will be open soon where it has been flooded out for the past 3 week.

Very unprofessional staff that does not understand golf etiquette. They do not respond to issues on the golf course. Made a call on the 12 hole and didn't come out to the 16th.hole and was very rude.

Our HS held a sports banquet at The Tribute. The food was fantastic (especially the chicken), the views were breathtaking, and the service was spot on. We had a buffet which made space a little tight. Great experience, looking forward to another event there!

Had a great round at The Tribute on Sunday 7/14/19. Got a break with the weather and played the first 13 holes or so in overcast skies, so not too hot. Course is fair with wider-than-normal fairways, but the rough will swallow up your golf ball. Almost impossible to find in the tall grass and even harder to chop out of. Greens rolled very true and were in great shape -- as was the rest of the course due to frequent rains this spring/summer. Cart girl came around right on time and was pleasant. We played from the white tees and the 6,000-yard length was perfect. The back nine seemed to play a little easier than the front. GPS on the carts would help greatly, but there are distances on most of the sprinkler heads. Overall, great Scottish links feel without spending an arm and a leg flying across the pond!

One of my favorite places to play in DFW. Just an all round gem.

A very well kept, and beautifully maintained golf course. Absolutely a top flight experience. From the tee boxes, fairways, to the greens, this golf course is just a very entertaining layout.

We arrived early at The Tribute and had a great first impression. The lodge was beautiful inside and out. We paid our $80 to play and then asked about range balls. The pro shop employee told us range balls are included and available on the range. We drove down to the range and were greeted by an unkempt range, with "free" range balls scattered everywhere. I would have expected a nicer range from a golf course that seems to be very proud of themselves. The course itself is in decent shape. We saw lots of weeds, grass growing through bunkers, and overgrown tee boxes. While those conditions weren't the norm for each hole, they were prevalent. The greens were in good shape and very challenging. They offered a medium speed. Fringe was being aerated while we were there but that didn't bother the round. Overall, its a nice course however not worth $80. I have played at better for less.

Shot 78...Slow greens, didn't roll very true. Cart girl yapping and driving during my buddy's backswing in 18. I expected much much better for $138 on the weekend. Wont do that again.

Great course and great staff. Booked for $39 and you can't beat that. Greens are awesome, better practice cause greens will cost you strokes.

Great golfing experience. Course is manicured to perfection.

Amateur starters, close their range at the slightest rain.

Great course. Be careful of the poison ivy in the bushes when you lose your ball.

This place is a must if golfing in the DFW area. The course has been in amazing shape every time I've played. They really took attention to detail replicating the fairway and green undulations. Being at the edge of a lake and in late summer in Texas, the course is harder and plays very much like a links course. LPGA was here last week so today was in even better shape. This is definitely one of the best Replica courses I've played.

Neat concept, the European version of Tour 18. Well cared for.

If you like golf clubs, this one is great for a wedding. Excellent food. Beautiful grounds

Had a great time, shot well (80s), & the staff was very accommodating & helpful. Cart girls themed dressed in plaid & made great Bloody Marie's. Because there was a large outing after us there was a bagpiper in kilt and hat playing on the 18th green. WOW !!! Would definitely recommend it & would love to go back.

This was my first time at The Tribute golf club and I thoroughly enjoyed it. The condition was excellent -- firm fast fairways and smooth greens. The recreation of the holes -- although I can't comment on the accuracy since I've only seen them on tv -- was intriguing but what really stood out was the elements. The wind blew non-stop so you could really crush your drives or just hit them over 200 yards, depending on the wind direction. The staff said it blows 90% of the time so this course is no pushover for that reason alone. Take this into account on downwind holes because you may end up hitting it into the Burn or over the hole, which happened to me quite a bit. Make sure your sand game is up to speed because it seems like these bunkers have magnets in them to attract balls. The clubhouse was nice and had a great selection of hats and souvenirs. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely try this course again.

Had a great time playing golf with my buddies. The course was in great shape. Never been to a course where you can pay for your early morning tee time and the pros will fix you a bloody Mary to start your round off on the right foot.

Love this course. Hasn't quite gotten over the winter conditions but getting there.

Personally I don t like golf but this place looks cool!

Fun to play this course with tributes to 18 great Scottish courses. Big, wide fairways and firm and dry U.K. style greens. Great location by Lk Louisville. A beautiful booming neighborhood has grown through around The Tribute.

These place is the best place to play golf in all of DFW!

The maintenance and greens are terrible. Its only saving grace is the range, just pay and play as long as you like. They come and refill the baskets with balls regularly, and it is rarely severely damaged.

worst greens in the metroplex. do not waste your money.

Great layout of this challenging and well maintained course. Look forward to playing it again.

I'm impressed how this course has matured. A great test of golf. Bring all your shots!

The golf experience is fantastic...lots of well...holes from famous holes around the world. The facilities for the clubhouse/bar were great, but service at bar was a little slow. Otherwise, I would certainly golf here again.

Nice course but very hard. If you do not like wind then do not play here. I played more than half of the holes listed in Scotland and they do a reasonable job of simulating the actual holes. Not bad for a US course.

Great place for banquet. Enjoyed meal, drinks and deserts.

Beautiful golf course and a great place for our annual fund raiser!

Deteriorating course quality as it gets way too much play now. Still decent but no longer worth the money or drive if you live in the city proper.

Not a fan of the open fairways. There are very little natural obstacles. I guess that's the Scottish homage of the course. It's also overpriced at 79$ on the weekday, the greens were very poor quality. Tee boxes are also poorly maintained and have lots of divots. Fairways were nice.

Nice place. Okay employees. Not too friendly or welcoming. The space was great. We attended a wedding there and it was a nice wedding. However, it was outdoors under a tent and ot was hotttt! A couple of fans to cool the place down would have been perfect.

The tribute of The Colony Golf is a nice place in which has a good restaurant supplies foods for peoples.

Course overall in very poor condition. Greens a disgrace, which I later learned are so bad that the course is scheduled to be closed for two months to address.
How a $73 green fee can be justified is beyond me.
An extra star given for range facilities otherwise deserving of a 1 star rating.

What a great challenging golf course had a great time loved it!!! Would recommend it to anyone

Courses in good shape and the greens were a little bit slow but okay.

This is a beautiful course to play at. The course is always maintained to the fullest. Easy to get to and feels secluded from the busy Colony area, parking is tight but there has never been a problem finding an open parking spot.

Nice course, replicas of the Open Championship holes. Come prepare to play in the wind. its always WINDY!!

Home course for Samesies Corp. RMO, Natcho, Antobey and Rhino give it 5 stars.

Great course with a very interesting layout.
The greens are shaping up well as the fall season starts . The GreenKeepers seems to be putting a lot of work to maintain the bentgrass greens this summer.
The fairways are decently wide and you still need to worry about errant shots. If they go into the natural grass, its gone goner goner*a.
Overall - Great interesting course and for Mid and high handicapers, bring an extra sleve of golf balls.

A very good course. Links style course wide and long. Greens were in good shape fairways were also in great shape. A very pleasant round of golf. Sorry

Booked a 2:30 tee time, round cost $36 and the value was INCREDIBLE. Amazing reproductions of some world famous Scottish golf holes. I've been to the Old Course and the four holes at the Tribute are VERY close reproductions, with all the fun and none of the extra cost! I can't say enough about the staff or the course. Just a great experience!

Love Tribute, great course, always great condition, friendly staff and good food. Unlike other "Tribute" courses this one is not tricked up, just great golf holes. Highly recommend you go play.

Smells like sewage and greens are aweful. Pub has moved for no reason and food is now limited to burgers. Lots of change but not for the better...

Beautiful, clean & great service!!! Lauren, Nikk, Sara & Kimberly are just amazing at what they do!!! Great experience we had at our event!!! Definitely recommend this place!!! Did i mention the chef threw down for us!! Great tasting food & refreshments!! Loved every minute of it!!!

I got married here on the 19th. My entire wedding from beginning to end was absolutely perfect, and the staff was wonderful! I worked with Katie and Hayley on the day of my wedding, and with Katie for many months beforehand. I could not ask for a better person to work with to make my big day everything I had been dreaming of. I cannot recommend the tribute enough!

Pleasant array of scenic holes. Ample challenge but not punitive to an average golfer. The sense of some Scottish holes is enjoyable, even if the lake is not the Irish Sea.
